The shots were fired at approximately 10:45 a.m., police said. No victim was located.

Poll workers, who said they could hear the shots fired, have requested a deputy from the Delaware County Sheriff's Office be stationed near the polling place. However, Delaware County Sheriff Joseph McGinn said there was no need for a deputy to be dispatched to Sun Village. He noted that after checking with Chester Police, there did not appear to be any concern about safety at the polling place.

"Basically, as far as Election Day is concern our Sheriff Deputies are they to ensure that things run smoothly," McGinn said. "From my officer in charge, there doesn't seem to be a situation where public safety is in jeopardy."
